PotW 22 November 2011

Postby the foto fanatic on Tue Nov 22, 2011 7:51 am

A relatively small field this week, but some real quality nonetheless. There were many images that I liked a lot, but one had an extra degree of originality in theme and presentation that kept me coming back to it.

It is "Big World; Little Bug" from Rooz.
Image

I really enjoy the perspective here. The tiny ladybug is such a small element in the image, but the lighting and composition draw the eye straight to it. Simple in concept, difficult in practice.

Here is the link to the original post.

Congratulations to Chris, and well done to all image posters this week, they were a good bunch.
